Cleaning

• To remove hard contamination, use a cloth moistened with

a solution of mild detergent and water. Do not use a spray

cleaning solution directly to the TV. It should only be used

to moisten the cleaning cloth.

• Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft cloth.

To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft

cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly

dampened with a solution of mild soap and warm water.

Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for

cleaning. If picture brightness decreases over time, it may

be necessary to clean the inside of the projection TV.

Consult qualified service personnel.

• Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this unit. If not,

it may result in electric shock.

• Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with

sharp or abrasive items, like a ball point pen or a screw

driver. Otherwise, this type or contact may result in a

scratched screen.

About the projection TV

Although the projection TV is made with high-precision

technology, black dots may appear or bright points of light

(red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the screen.

This is a structural property of the panel and is not a

malfunction.

Projection lamp

• Your projection TV uses a projection lamp as its light

source. It is time to replace the lamp with a new one (not

supplied) when:

– the lamp replacement indicator on the front panel blinks

in red,

– screen images become dark,

– no image appears on the display after prolonged use.

• In rare instances, the bulb may pop inside the lamp unit, but

the lamp unit is designed to contain all of broken glass

pieces inside the lamp unit. (See “Replacing the lamp” on

page 16.)

• When the lamp eventually burns out, you may hear a

noticeable pop sound. This is normal and is inherent in this

type of lamp.

Cooling fan

This projection TV uses a cooling fan. You may hear some

fan noise (depending on the placement of the projection TV),

which may be more noticeable during the night, or when

ambient noise is particularly low.

Clean the rear cover area of the projection TV regularly.

Dust in rear cover area may cause a problem with the

cooling system of the projection TV set.

• “DRC-MF” for viewing higher quality pictures

Frequently Asked Questions about Sony KF-WE42A1 Television

Our support team searches for useful product information and answers to frequently asked questions. If you find an inaccuracy in our frequently asked questions, please let us know by using our contact form.

How do I measure the inches of my television? Verified

Measuring the inches on your television is done by measuring the diagonal distance between for example the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the screen (not the edge). One inch equals 2,54 centimeter, so when you measure 99 centimeter, this means your television is 39 inches.

Why are there letters next to the numbers on the remote control? Verified

Certain television settings may require you to enter letters. There are usually three letters or other characters on a button. When letter input is required, you can press that button once for the first letter, press twice for the second letter and press 3 times for the third letter. This way, text can be written with a minimum number of buttons.

What is the optimal viewing distance for my television? Verified

This partially depends on personal preference, but as a rule of thumb the optimal viewing distance is about 3x the diagonal screen size of the television. For a television of 60 inch (152cm) the optimal viewing distance would be 180 inch or about 4.5 meter.

How can I properly clean my television? Verified

Turn off the television and wipe dust and dirt off the screen with a microfiber cloth. Do not use paper, this can cause scratches. Do not apply too much pressure or you might cause damage to pixels. Use a specialized detergent or make one by mixing 1 part vinegar with 1 part water. Moisten the cloth with the detergent and clean the screen. Make sure the cloth is not too wet. Remove stains by making rotating movements. Dry the screen with a second microfiber cloth to prevent stripes.

What is the contrast ratio? Verified

The contrast ratio tells how far the whitest white is from the blackest black. A contrast ratio of for example 400:1 means that the blackest black on screen is 400 times darker than the whitest white. A high contrast ratio contributes to the sharpness of the image.
